JUDGE IRvINs INVESTIGATION.
The inquiry into the alleged irrecularity Of
the county grand jury has not closed yet, but
no new evidence has been developed. It is not
probable that the manner in which the jury was
packed can be ferreted out, and unless there
some new developments the case will prob
ably come to an end tomorrow. The Sentinel,
intimates that the investigation was instituted
at the request of County Clerk Sullivan and
that he demanded vindication. If Mr. Sulli-
van desired an investigation he never intimated
anything of tne kind in the Criminal Court and
was apparently very much surprised when he
was presented with Judge Twins order to ap-
pear before him.

that during all that time the Exposition build
ing closed, and he WAS unable carry out

Interesting Information Furnished by 6
United States Army Officer.
Most company officers try to get
their men mounted on horses which
are ali of the same color, and in every
regiment we have troops of black.
gray, roam. bay and sorrel horses.
Bay horses are the easiest procured.
and consequently you will find several
troops of this color in each regiment
Blacks and grays are not SO easy to
get, and it is almost impossible to get
a roam troop. CAPTAIN Wood, of the
Fourth Cavalry, has the finest troop in
the service, the horses are all magnifi-
cent iron-grays. and it has taken him
long time to get them together.
The regiment is proud of this troop.
and the officers always give way to
Captain Wood when a fine gray horse
is purchased. so he can select it for his
company. When a horse is first
bought for the service he is designated
by number branded on his hoof, but
as this soon wears off. he is allowed to
be named by the soldier to whom he is
assigned. Some troops have a uniform
system of naming their horses;
thus all of the horses belonging to B
troop of the Fourth Cavalry have
names commencing with the letter B.
A great deal of attention is given to
the cavalry horses; they are carefully
groomed and regularly fed on the very
best hay and grain which the Govern.
ment can procure. The horses are re-
tanned in service just as long as they
remain sound and in good condition.
When they begin to fail in strength,
become blind or get crippled. they are
condemned by a board of army off,
GERS, and are sold at auction to the
highest bidders. Some horses remain
in the service for many years l have
known of horse which was perfectly
sound after twenty years service in
one troop. Not few horses are con-
demned soon after being bought for.
although they have the appearance OF
being all right, short test shows <aat
they have not the endurance necessary
for hard work. In a long campaign
animals suffer greatly at times for
want of forage and water, but in time
of peace the cavalry horse may Be said
to occupy as enviable position as any
reasonable horse could desire.-6k

Tho Terrible Rate of Mortality Prevailing
Among the Inmates of Jails.
The Russian Administration of Pri.
sons has just issued its report for 1885.
On the 1st Of January, 1885, there were
"a. 1873 persons incarcerated throughout
the empire. In the course of the year
7O3, 254 entered and 697, 769 individuals
were liberated, leaving a residue of 80.
97S still in prison. Women formed
about 8 per cent. of the convicted. Not
outstanding certain amelioration of
sanitary appliances in the jails, the rate
of mortality remained stationary. OF
the Sc, O02 prisoners who were treated
in hospital, there died 2.1S9 men, 246
women, SAG children. In this respect
the island of Saghalien stood in the
worst position, its sick list showing
totdl of IS per cent. on the year, but
the number of deaths there are not
given. Diseases arising from humidity,
insufficient ventilation, and defective
sanitary arrangements are the chief
scourges of the state prisons. Among
the 1929 persons who passed through
the prisons of St. Petersburg 2. CTS were
accused of theft, 139 of political often
ces, one of bigamy and one of apostasy.
The largest number of offenders be-
longed to the artisan class; not one is
specified as peasant. The expenses
of the penitentiary service in the whole
empire amounted to II, 1913, GA rubles.
being a diminution of 521. 2S9 rubles
upon the expenditure of the proceed.
ing year. This economy was partially
effected by reducing the cost Of the
equipment of the prisoners. There was
falling off in the receipts derived from
the products of the prisoners industry
from 1SS, $50 rubles in 1884 to 1OS, $50
rubles in 1885. Moreover the Coal
Mining Company Of Saghalien, which
is supplied with convict labor. paid to
the State 81, $50 rubles for the rights
conceded to it.-London Times.

Larkspurs, lilies, pansies, roses,

Each some attribute discloses,
Dear one, OF thy face to me.
And they all betray the traces
In their newly opened faces
OF their own unconscious graces-
OF their fellowship with thee.
Hark. The breeze that stirs the petals
OF the sweet anemone
Makes me dream that thou art signing.
And the peace within me dying,
Turned 70 anguish PROSTATE lying,
Prays and cries aloud for thee!
Sweet the thoughts that fill my mind,
Sweet IS breath Of summer wind
Blowing other gardens over;
Or from meads where fragrant clover
Lures the bee and hides the plover
As thy charms have holden me
As thy face allures thy lover
As my heart is lost in thee! ~

And the suns last ray at even
Bear her through the gates OF Heav'n, :
There, where blossoms never fall
VIII the fairest flowers Of all
Bloom for me!
